Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, 4 for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer. Every government should be here to punish the evil and protect the good that is why they have authority to jail or to kill. Unfortunately non of the government on the earth does their job properly. All corrupted. It's a bit more difficult when we talk about two different countries. Edited August 10, 2017 by Zoltan777 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if Jeffress is right that "God has given Trump authority to take out Kim Jong Un," POTUS already has the nuclear codes to make it happen. But I doubt it will end there after China vowed to defend the DPNK if the U.S. strikes first and/or tries to overthrow Kim's regime. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/china-pledges-neutrality-unless-us-strikes-north-korea-first/ar-AApR3VE?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=spartandhp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were me, I would plant viruses in N Korea's in the computer systems and disable their nuke program and erase as much information and eliminate the possibility of having to risk letting N Korea have the first blow.

Unfortunately Trump is not you and has instead decided to channel Harry Truman; the problem now is that the US is no longer the sole owner of deployable nuclear weapons.
